Honestly, this is my first topic post, so I don't really know what to say, but honestly, I think both the console and controllers are ugly, and the disc thing, where it downloads the game onto your xbox, and cannot be used again (it stays on your system, and you play it through the system) without paying is terrible. also, you can't play games from the 360. honestly, I think microsoft have become greedy, and I don't really plan on buying it. But still, I would like to know others opinions on this?
Xbox one, opinions?

while i understand people's negative reactions to the DRM idea, from my understanding it was the always checking online and putting a choke hold on used games, this could of been a good idea. most people are thinking about their pockets right now, not of the future. if microsoft played the DRM idea as well as the licensing idea, by putting a choke hold on used game sales, they control the new game sales. by emptying the market of used games they can charge what they want on those games since they would be the monopoly dealing with the games on xbox one. they can then fluctuate the price higher( if they want to ruin their customers) or lower ( if they want their customers to buy more) in the future since at the beginning, the new ideas would shake peoples ideas of them. keeping something the same at the beginning (i.e the price of new triple A games at 60 buck) would offer a sense of familiarity thus causing the peoples confidence in them to grow while they profit all the more since they didn't have to calculate the added price of what they would lose through used game sales. i think that all in all the xbox one and its new ideas could be a good thing, if implemented properly.
